Question 16
A hockey puck is hit with a large force. The puck moves at a high speed as it slides over the ice.

What happens according to Newton’s first law of motion?

A) The puck does not lose any speed because ice is a very slippery surface.

B) The puck gradually slows down because mass makes objects slow down.

C) The puck gradually slows down because friction would be acting on it.

D) The puck does not lose any speed because once an object starts moving, the force of friction would no longer apply to it.

Answer:

C) The puck gradually slows down because friction would be acting on it.

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be C because the puck would be scraping the ice and when it's scraping it slowly losses its speed because the ground is pushing it lightly

Hoped that helped :/
